# Chat with us!
You can access LibreGaming chatrooms/server(s) from any of Matrix, XMPP, Libera.chat or FreeGameDev irc
We try our best to let people use their favorite chat client to join us.
Currently, we use native [Matrix] rooms which are also accessible via [Jabber/XMPP] and [IRC].
For pre-existing projects, their official chatrooms are bridged where possible, even if they're on the non-libre [Discord] platform.
New projects should take advantage of [FreeGameDev]'s cross-platform integration.
Fun fact: All rooms are bridged via [FreeGameDev IRC] using its [Matrix Gateway], [XMPP Gateway] and IRC bridge [(matterbridge)] for libera-chat.<br>
Official Libreagaming rooms won't be connected to discord for [numerous reasons].
